ALEKS Assessments

Hello all

I'm just wondering if any of you have been mind boggled with the ALEKS assessments.

I'm completing Statistics and found it fairly easy and only scored a 34% my first time around, so I went to my master account and immediately requested another assessment and scored a 46%. I also felt like I got all of the answer right on that one too.

About an hour after that, I went back and requested a 3rd assessment (in the same day) and scored a 46% AGAIN! It's killing me. I know I'm getting these all right--or at least 90%++ of them.

Am I doing something wrong? Should I just keep asking for new assessments until I hit the 70% mark? I'm not using the pie to study because I already know this stuff, so I just keep requesting new assessments. Please help!

That's weird. Sorry to hear that. Since you keep getting the same score, maybe you should study a little beforehand. If you already know the stuff pretty much, the study should come easy for you. You might have a few concepts mixed up.

Here is a really good website that has videos on all of the basic stat stuff. I use this site myself from time to time: Khan Academy

I'm currently in a doctoral level statistics class. So I feel your pain!

I know the stuff but it doesn't allow my score to go up, so I'm wondering if you're forced to do the slices in the pie for it to test you on that stuff? I just keep reassessing because I already know it and don't want to bother wasting time.
